Keeping up to date

I first met Bernadette Warren when she volunteered to act as a patient for a visual impairment course run at City University over the summer. It was immediately apparent that she was born to this role, and was able to explain her visual aids and the other ways she copes with her sight loss in a way that offered all the course delegates a clear and understandable snapshot of how she lives her life. It soon became apparent that Bernie had a wealth of experience in this and was an old hand at talking at events. She had even taken part in a local radio phone-in talking about the latest developments in diabetes glucose monitoring and control. It was this that particularly interested me, so I was pleased when Bernie agreed to a short interview to find out more about her use of technology.
